Friday, Oct 31. First day of the show. Just tons of really great Fine Crafts people and work. I felt honored to be set up in their midst. I rode the Metro in today, the first time ever for me. Going in was pleasant.
Attendance was quite light with several long periods of no attendees. I sold one small item all day. Ouch!
Here is my booth. It is a terrible image, I apologize.
Spent last night in a small 50's motel with almost zero ammenities. I slept well, though, A few hours of driving brought me to the hotel in DC and I checked in after being lectured about checkin times. I had arrived just under two hours early. Luckily the lady at the desk interceded the man's torrent and I was in my room lickity split. Within two hours after that I was carting my exhibit into the hall. After unloading I parked Ody three stories underground a few blocks away. I continued to setup until 9:00PM.
